Tunis Sheep

      We became involved in sheep four years ago through the 4-H sheep project. Jessie leased a few Romney lambs and had a commercial lamb that she showed her first year. At the last fair of the year she fell in love with the Tunis breed, and the rest as they say is history.....

     Our biggest mentor was and still is Boulder Creek Tunis in Penobscot Maine. Troy has been a great help to us in our getting started and keeps us going with the addition of great bloodlines in our flock. Jessie purchased her first Tunis from Boulder Creek, "Ginger". We try to stay within certain bloodlines, and keep a show quality flock. We have lines including Jethro, Big Rig, Schambow, Darling, Best Tunis and Woolmark. We are always striving to breed bigger and better Tunis here. We are pleased to introduce ewe to our girls and guys.........

                                                          Registered Tunis Lambs

We will have registered Tunis lambs for sale in 2015. All lambs are well bred and registered. These are show quality lambs. Lambs will be posted for sale in March/April. Feel free to contact us to be notified when lambs are posted.

                           D.O.B: 3/1/2011

Ginger is the one who started it all. She is a classic Tunis she is a shorter animal but has very correct conformation. She is a Jethro daughter, out of a Schambow Ewe, and has passed along her sweet disposition and correctness along to her offspring. Her first lamb is "Goliath" See Tunis Rams.

                                                           Ariel

                                                  Breed: Dorset

                                                    D.O.B.

 

Ariel is an amazing mother and she gives us gorgeous market lambs that do very well in the ring and commercially. She is not the most social gal in our flock but she has other qualities we love about her.

Winnie

D.O.B. 4/9/2012

Suffolk/Tunis

 

Winnie is the best of two great breeds. We get a great Suffolk body with long lines and good top lines. Depth in the hindsaddle and the low key personality of a Tunis.

Winnie threw an amazing lamb this year with great conformation and high carcus yield. We hope the breeding to Goliath will make it even better.

                                      Bred to Goliath for 2015
